New dynamic market reports

20 May 2021

MLA is transitioning from PDF market reports to dynamic dashboards that offer greater insight into the market and allow users to view all saleyards from the one location. Users have the opportunity to use these new dashboards to interpret market dynamics and gain access to deeper insights to enhance business decision-making.

Data previously available via PDF reports is still available via the new reports, and can be viewed on a phone, tablet or PC.
